The Continence Program at USLV can help resolve your incontinence issues

Author: Dr. Berger

Incontinence is a bothersome medical condition that affects women as well as men … the young and the old. If you have incontinence issues you need to talk with a urologist.

At Urology Specialists of the Lehigh Valley all of our doctors deal with all conditions involving the bladder and surgery of the bladder. In fact, we have a program dedicated solely to the care of incontinence issues.

USLV’s Continence Program has been steadily meeting the needs of residents in the Lehigh valley with incontinence issues — both male and female — for 16 years. The program consists of two physicians, a nurse practitioner, and a registered nurse and features two specially annexed rooms where continence treatments take place. Most counseling and determination of treatments occur in the privacy of the physician/patient encounter. Biofeedback and specific hands-on training sessions, as well as the urodynamics studies, are performed by our R.N. and nurse practitioner. Both are also available to work with you on the more practical aspects of incontinence management such as the use of pads and day-to-day matters to help you achieve dryness.
